About War

"He who joyfully marches to music rank and file, has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice. This disgrace to civilization should be done away with at once. Heroism at command, how violently I hate all this, how despicable and ignoble war is; I would rather be torn to shreds than be a part of so base an action. It is my conviction that killing under the cloak of war is nothing but an act of murder." Einstein

The Irish Anti-War Movement, supported by PANA and the NGO Alliance, is organising a major International conference against war and occupation on Saturday October 13th in the Royal Dublin Hotel. Our objective is to bring together key figures from countries in the brunt of the storm with anti-war activists here in Ireland and elsewhere in Europe. Tickets €10.00 at door or Purchase Ticket On-Line. There also events in Galway and Derry.

The conference will challenge the myths and propaganda peddled by the main stream media and discuss practically how we can build the movement of resistance to war and occupation over the coming months. Unity of the anti war movement across organisational and territorial boundaries and solidarity with those who fight the illegal occupation of their country is what we seek. We must mobilise our support and push the Government not only through motions in the Dail but also in the streets through a major national demonstration planned for Nov 10th.

The political debate and our Cultural Event with music and poetry to follow will be held at the

Teachers Club
